Step-by-Step Instructions

1
In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, granulated sugar, and unsalted butter. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is hot but not boiling.
2
In a small bowl, whisk together the large egg yolks. Gradually add the hot coconut milk mixture to the egg yolks, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
3
Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
4
Strain the mixture into a clean bowl and let it cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
5
To assemble the parfait, layer the coconut custard, toasted coconut flakes, and caramelized pineapple in a tall clear glass. Repeat the layers two more times, ending with a layer of coconut custard on top.
